"The Complete Recordings of Hezekiah Procter (1925 - 1930)" is a box set, novel, and experimental recording project from acclaimed Montreal songwriter Li'l Andy.

Great bluegrass and😂and I thought I had tired of it. What is that strange instrument with the strings and horn? I loved it. Available on AMAZON?

The strange instrument is a Stroh violin, an early attempt to make the violin audible in ensembles.
